Subletting Must Be Presumed In Commercial Tenancy Where Tenant Allows Outsider To Use The Premises For Profiteering: Bombay High Court

The Bombay High Court ruled that a tenant allowing outsiders to use rented premises constitutes subletting under commercial tenancy laws. The court emphasized that such actions, even if done without monetary exchange, breach the terms of the tenancy agreement, justifying eviction by the landlord. This ruling reaffirms the strict interpretation of subletting clauses in commercial leases.
